 * Hi – wow, thanks for doing that! Excellent vid – which prompted me to update 
   the plugin to cater for front-end use of the Media Library by applying the patches
   mentioned in the Description there also so that you can link to the preview image
   in “Add Media”.
 * There’s a pre-release available at [https://github.com/gitlost/gs-only-pdf-preview/raw/master/dist/gs-only-pdf-preview-1.0.8.zip](https://github.com/gitlost/gs-only-pdf-preview/raw/master/dist/gs-only-pdf-preview-1.0.8.zip)–
   note you’ll have to deactivate and delete the plugin first before you can do 
   a “Upload Plugin” of the 1.0.8 zip (alas). Give it a try if possible and if it
   works for you I’ll release it properly some time next week…
 * Thanks again!

 * Hi, if you’ve installed and activated the plugin, then the native function should
   be pre-empted, and in effect disabled. Is this not happening for you?

 * Might be worth changing the version check at [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/disable-json-api/trunk/disable-json-api.php#L12](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/disable-json-api/trunk/disable-json-api.php#L12)
   to strip out the extra beta guff eg.
 *     ```
       global $wp_version;
       $dra_current_WP_version = substr( $wp_version, 0, strspn( $wp_version, '0123456789.' ) );
       ```
